The Livy quote that CBE uses actually describes large numbers of men involved in Bacchus worship
Mike examines the actual Livy passage that CBE cites and finds it undermines their argument.
Livy's passage says: 'First then a great part of them are women, and they are the source of this mischief; then there are men very like the women.' Livy goes on to describe 'large numbers of men' involved, 'meetings of men and women in common,' and argues these men should not be trusted as soldiers. The Livy quote that CBE uses to isolate women as the source actually emphasizes massive male involvement -- directly contradicting the claim that Paul could single out women because the cult was female-dominated.
